In my experience the most effective leg exercise is the front sumo box squat.

Of all the leg exercises I’ve done, the front sumo box squat has given me the most gain in leg size and strength.

Now for a lot of you out there you may be apprehensive to listen to me on this but believe me when I say if you want big thighs then you should be doing front sumo box squats a couple of times of week as you main mas builder for you thighs.

Now for me, front sumo box squats are pretty much the only leg exercise that I do beside straight leg dead-lift.

My training style consist of utilizing the most effective exercise for a given body part and forgo the less effective exercises. I believe that if you want the best results then you need to stick with the best exercises and not waist your time with exercises that are sub par.

So why is the Front sumo squat the best leg exercise in my opinion? Well first of all it’s the safest squat when don’t properly. Your knees and back are in strong positions during the movement. Second, It’s targets the legs completely from the calves to the quads, to the hams to the glutes. It also strengthens the core muscles.

Now if you’re trying to gain muscle then you want to work the muscle. A lot of times people go to heavy and just work the tendons. To get the most benifit you have to hammer the muscle with a lot of reps and a lot of sets with a moderate or even a light amount of weight. Don’t get caught up in the heavy weight game cause you’ll get stronger but you won’t get bigger.

I suggest keeping you reps between 20 and 30 rep and doing 20 sets. Yep that’s right I said 20 sets. If you want to grow you have to saturate the muscle with blood and force it to grow.

Then that’s it your leg workout is complete. No useless leg extension, no knee destroying hack squats, no awkward leg press. Just the 20 sets of 20 reps of front box squats and you leg will be fried. Do this a couple times a week and you legs will grow into tree trunks.
